Two 'disruptive passengers' had to be removed from a Ryanair flight after an fight on board reportedly got out of hand.
The pair had supposedly been sat apart early on in the flight, which departed from Manchester Airport to Corfu at 5.30pm on Tuesday.
But they later moved seats to be together and became 'disruptive', with reports of a fight breaking out on board, according to Manchester Evening News.
This forced the pilot to divert the plane from to Bologna, where the pair were removed from the flight by local police.
Footage shared with the MEN shows a woman being carried off the plane by officers and attempting to resist them.
Video shows her being carried by her arms and feet down the stairlift, before being escorted to the police car and put inside.
A picture from inside the plane also shows two Italian police officers escorting someone from the flight as shocked passengers remain in their seats.
Following the brief stop, the flight continued its journey shortly afterwards and arrived in Corfu later that night - a few hours after its scheduled arrival time of 10.40pm.
